PLW 8617 [EL/S RT]

Lab washer, steam/electrically heated – single door, with recycling tank, 1150 mm wide, 351 l usable capacity.

Capacity/cycle, e.g.216 laboratory flasks, 588vials or 294pipettes
Environmentally friendly thanks to recycling tank
Recycling tank
Environmentally friendly: efficiently saves on water and energy.
Up to 60 % less water consumption based on the load ^*e.g. 60 % saving with 100 ml laboratory bottles in Universal Max programme compared to Lab Universal programme for PG 8527
Flexible and simple – modular load carriers & EasyLoad system
Versatile load carriers
The versatile load carriers from Miele Professional offer a wide array of possibilities with regard to loading. The load carriers can be flexibly adapted to the load items in just a few steps with a small number of load carriers in combination with some additional modules and inserts. This saves costs as well as space.
EasyLoad
The EasyLoad system makes reprocessing laboratory glassware considerably faster, simpler and more reliable. The biggest benefit afforded by the new system is that load items can be positioned over nozzles both more simply and faster as height adjustment of the holders is no longer necessary thanks to the smart combination of nozzles and holding frames. This makes correct positioning extremely easy.
Efficient – strong pump power with the variable-speed pump
Sustainable thanks to two-pump technology
Smart two-pump technology is at the heart of this laboratory washer from Miele. The variable-speed pump is particularly flexible regarding the basket coupling system. This pump adapts the wash pressure and required water to the specific requirements – high pressure facilitates the removal of stubborn soiling, while low pressure ensures complete wetting of the whole load. This guarantees maximum cleaning performance while ensuring sustainable use of resources.
Reliable results – spray arm monitoring and conductivity meter
Spray arm monitoring
Reliable cleaning performance thanks to the monitoring of the rotation speed of the spray arm.
Conductivity monitoring
Reliably clean: Residue-free final rinse for perfect results.
